$40M investment to spur new nuclear developments in Idaho and Wyoming
On Monday, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that its Economic Development Administration (EDA) intends to award $31 million to the Intermountain-West Nuclear Energy Corridor (INEC) Tech Hub. The Idaho Advanced Energy Consortium (IAEC), the group that leads the INEC Tech Hub, subsequently announced that matching donations from its stakeholder partners will bring the total investment up to $40 million.

Various alloys with face-centered cubic structures were irradiated to fast fluences of 1.5 × 1021 n/cm2 (E > I MeV) and tested in tension at elevated temperatures. The alloys that were investigated included pure nickel (99.999%), Nickel 200, a non-nickel manganese stabilized stainless steel (Tenelon), and two cobalt alloys. One of the cobalt alloys contained 10% nickel (Haynes Stellite-25) while the other was nickel free (UMCo-50). It was found that irradiation caused embrittlement in all of these alloys when they were tested in tension at elevated temperatures.
